Description

Describes a key press or release.

The key object represents a single key press or release event. Each key press consists of a key code that identifies the key pressed/released, a flag indicating whether the event was a key press or a key release, and three modifier flags: alt, shift and control that indicate whether or not the alt, shift or control keys were held while the key was pressed/released. Key objects are stored in a fifo queue internally inside the console class when a key is pressed and can be read using the IPTCConsole.KeyPressed, IPTCConsole.ReadKey and IPTCConsole.ReadKey methods.
